Trump = deals = money. He also doesn't give a shit how many reporters or dissidents the Saudis chop up. All hard power, nothing to do with anything soft
I have no idea what the f you're talking about with 1 dude who had 60 kids or Putin having 7. Elon has 13; what does that have to do with anything? Here's Russia's birth rate. Shows absolutely no upward trend, Saudi, Muslim, Arab, completely irrelevent.
Building cities don't mean increased population; China's population isn't growing and we're the biggest city builders in the world.
